About this sound
“Stay off the Tracks”
That's a subway train pulling into the station. About 15 seconds of a low rolling rumble that builds up and then settles, with some clanky machine stuff underneath. It's really loud, so you'll probably want to turn it down. Good for a platform scene or a city commute.
Editing notes
Measured from this file.
- There's 0.17 s of quiet before the sound starts. Trim that off if it has to land right on a cut, a hit or a button press.
- It's done by 12.8 s. The last 2.78 s of the file is pretty much silence, so you can cut it.
- It peaks at +0.7 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 2 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
- It's −9.1 LUFS, about 9 dB louder than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So start with the fader lower when you swap it in.
